Dear MIT Web Publishers,

We're happy to announce an update to the MIT Google search engine to a  
new version which is 2 - 3 times faster than the current  
installation.  In order to provide this faster and more reliable  
search service, MIT's Google search engine will be updated during the  
weekend of May 23, 2009.

The latest Google version is already being used by the MIT home page  
search, and we have extensively tested the new version on departmental  
custom searches.  We expect MIT web publishers will not have to make  
changes to their existing search forms and custom results style sheets  
to take advantage of the benefits of this Google upgrade.

You can test your current search forms and results stylesheets before  
the transition by following the simple steps at:
http://web.mit.edu/google/update/

To ensure a seamless transition, the Google team is available to offer  
MIT web publishers testing support and to answer your questions about  
the Google search.

If you have any questions, please write to IS&T's search engine team  
at google at mit.edu.

Thank you,

Suzana Lisanti
